It's Huge

5.08.2011

I know you don't want to visit this room again, but this is where you will find my Mother's day gift from Mr. Savvy. He didn't even know he was getting me this, but he did. he he. When I went with my mom to Ethan Allen several weeks ago I saw this and had to have it. I had seen it years ago and thought they quit carrying it, but they still do. So come on in and I will show you.

Here it is. This is a HUGE sign and I thought it would be great in this room.

Here you go now you can get a better idea of how it looks in the room. I think it is perfect

for filling up that huge space above the bookcase. This is looking in from the front door.

For those of you who are new around here this is my living room that is kind of a sitting room/library that I am slowly adding vintage worn books to and it is filled with hunt scenes, silver, and transferware. Kind of an English country style going on in here.

Here are a few of my crusty worn leather bound books that I have and am hunting for more.

Here is one of my new bookends I just found last weekend at a home decor shop. I have been searching for the perfect ones and I love these.

Other side.

Transferware platter from ebay called Myott's Country Life.

This is still my favorite silver find.

Love the monogram. Makes me wonder who this belonged to.

I have moved things around on these shelves. I found this old yarn spool at Scott Antique Market a couple of months ago and it works great to hold this vintage riding hat. The bronze dog was a flea market find a while back.

I brought my silver champagne bucket back in here from the foyer and moved my chalkware collie over to this end table. Both found at the antique mall last year.

Mr.Savvy has the MOST WONDERFUL taste in the world *wink*...and how lucky that he was thoughtful enough to order this just for you for Mother's Day *wink wink*. Tell him all the girls in blogland think he is just wonderful- that will take the sting out of whatever he paid for it!;>) Diana

Ha! Some of the best gifts I got from my hubby, I bought for myself, too, Kim! I can't complain, he's getting pretty good. I got a Michael's gift card.Great sign and it looks perfect above your bookcase!

Kim my friend Jen the decorator works at Ethan Allen and I went to see her the other day and saw that sign and gasped...I too loved it! Spent the day with my mom and brothers family watching the Nephew's baseball game...my dil Melanie brought me her gift to me a box of Macarons that she MADE...they were just as good as the ones from Paris at Laudree...and that is saying something! Annie sent me tulips, my favorite.....oh and Sushi had no mistakes today...it was a great day! BTW that silver pitcher is so cool, I don't think I have ever seen such a beautiful one, lucky you!

I love your new sign, Kim! It looks perfect in your sitting room! I had a wonderful day...I received a gift certificate to the garden store, a new oriole feeder, a DVD of The Holiday...and best of all... a great dinner in the porch with all my children!

Love your sign. We also have the same gift policy around here:) My husband picked out a new quilt from PB. My kids gave me paper flowers they made at school - really wonderful to get their art and see how proud they are of their gifts.

Love that! I've seen this very piece somewhere and it has never left my mind. Didn't know it was Ethan Allen. I too have a room like this but not enough space for the sign. Love the masculine tone of your room.My hubby told me to get a pedi this week. Is that a lazy man's way out or what? But I'll take it!

Kim that sign is perfect! I love it especially because it says Murphy! What a wonderful gift from the Mister! I got a new ipod! I walk at night with it and just play it all the time in the house. My first one was misplaced. I actually think it was taken at the car dealership, but who knows. I love it and needed it! We are a dancing family! Can't wait to see what your kids got you!

Kim, your new sign is fabulous, what a great find. It is perfect in that spot. I also love your bookends. Your LR is so pretty and everything is coming together perfectly. I love it all and I totally love the English/Hunt theme. Thanks so much for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
